I retired on 1/30/2026 and wanted to spend 2 weeks in my fave place in the world - the Wisconsin North Woods - and I wanted to stay on Lake Superior. Everyone said WHY?! Because after working for 22 years in a challenging industry, I needed to destress. I wanted to be quiet. I wanted to watch the storms roll across Lake Superior. This beautiful home is about as far north as you can get in Wisconsin. It is a LOT of house for 2 people but for a group it would be great. Luke was so wonderful to deal with - both prior to the trip and the couple of questions we had when we got there. If you do decide to go in the Winter, just know it is remote. The roads are plowed but snow packed. Not much is open (but go to Pancho's in Cornucopia for the Walleye cheeks). I enjoyed cooking in the gorgeous kitchen (everything there you need!) and my husband and I played cards, binged some tv shows and just chilled. I've recommended this house to friends that go up in the summer to fish and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a Lake Superior experience. Close to Duluth, Bayfield and Hayward so things to do if you want to. Enjoy the sunrises!!!

We had a wonderful time at this beautiful spot on Lake Superior! The setting was peaceful and the views were amazing. Our friends from out of state had a blast. The amenities were great and plenty of space. Unfortunately, there was a small hiccup with the water during our stay, but Luke, the owner, handled it with professionalism, kindness, and generosity. He went above and beyond to make things right, which we truly appreciated. We’d happily return!

Perfect house for our family vacation

Everything about this house was great, plenty of room for my family of 9, location to local towns and the Apostle Islands, communication with property owner, and beautiful views of the lake! I really appreciate all of the extra towels and bedding because other VRBO’s are sometimes not so generous. We also loved the abundance of seating in the great room, we’ve been to several homes that only seat a few when the home sleeps 10-15, so that was fantastic. Thanks again for a wonderful stay!

Great property. Great venue. Great views.

Our family of 8 adults and 4 children under 6 were extremely comfortable at this property. The kitchen/dining/gathering room was more than ample. The dining area seated the entire family. The HUGE couch seated the crew as well. The kitchen is wonderful and multiple refrigerators really help. The yard is well kept and very inviting. We had a great week!
